Beta patch 1.4 available

Sovereignty: Crown of Kings is a turn-based fantasy strategy game for the PC. It offers a intuitive yet deep province system, allowing you to raise armies, conduct diplomacy, scout enemy battle lines, rally heroes to your banner, send them on quests, cast spells and go to war. In Sovereignty, the player chooses one of 35 Realms in a bid for dominance of the map. Play is conducted in a series of turns as a single player game. Each Realm has a unique culture and history, which translates directly into different play-styles. Each realm has its own mix of unit types and spell trees. Their diplomatic relations, economies and histories vary. A player may choose a new realm and experience the game in a very different way. Fantasy heroes, troops, races and spells complement the rise to power.

There was a bug in the "brave" flag in the 1.4 update which went out - this causes auto-battles to crash constantly (only happens if there is a unit with brave in the battle, which is how it slipped through).

We have a fixed version of the file ready to go, so we advise to downgrade/opt out of the beta until we get it dealt with.

Fix should be up asap.
